🧬 Key ingredients

Propolis extract – 60%

The main ingredient of the formula. Beauty of Joseon highlights its soothing, nourishing and antioxidant effects, as well as its support for hydration and skin barrier function. It also gives the serum its distinctively rich, “cushiony” feel.

Niacinamide – 2%

Helps to brighten and even out the skin tone, supports spot care and the skin barrier. Together with propolis, it forms a combination that aims to balance problematic skin rather than dry it out.

BHA – 0.5%

The BHA present as betaine salicylate in the formula helps care for pores and sebum-related skin issues. As an exfoliating ingredient, gradual introduction and daytime sun protection are recommended for sensitive skin.

🎯 Who is it for?

Suitable for all skin types, but especially a good choice for combination, oily, problematic, enlarged pores or unbalanced skin. If your skin is sensitive to BHA, start with less frequent use and perform a patch test.

💗 Why do we love it?

Because it treats problematic skin without aggressive “degreasing”. The soothing and nourishing base of propolis is combined with niacinamide and a small amount of BHA, targeting sebum, pores, texture and radiance all at once. Despite the honey-like texture, the brand states it does not leave a sticky feeling after absorption.

❓ Q&A

How do I use it?

After cleansing and toner/essence, place 2–3 drops in your palm, spread over the face and neck, then gently pat in. Follow with a moisturizer.

Can it be used morning and evening?

Yes. According to Beauty of Joseon, it can be used both day and night. Since it contains 0.5% BHA, always apply appropriate sun protection if used in the morning.

What is the texture like?

A thicker, honey-like, cushiony serum, but the brand states it does not leave a sticky residue after full absorption.

Can I use it with other exfoliants or retinoids?

If your routine already includes AHA/BHA/PHA, retinoids or other strong actives, do not introduce them all at once. Due to the 0.5% BHA, it is advisable to monitor skin tolerance and use on separate days if necessary to reduce the risk of irritation.
